A surprising study of how images of Andean Indianness have been popularized
in Bolivian media

Set against the background of Boliviaıs prominent urban festival parades and
the countryıs recent appearance on the front lines of antiglobalization
movements, Circuits of Culture is the first social analysis of Bolivian film
and television, their circulation through the social and national landscape,
and the emergence of the countryıs indigenous video movement.
"Jeff Himpele rejects the compartmentalization of mass, urban, popular,
indigenous, and festival media in this brilliant study of media and
identity. He has also provided an extraordinarily original framing of the
social and cultural dynamics of a Latin American political economy." Kay
Warren
